Oran Z. Belgrave, who owns the Pan African Black Facts & Wax Museum, shows an authentic Ku Klux Klan outfit he has on display there. The Crenshaw district museum, open by appointment only, houses thousands of items related to African American history and culture that Belgrave has collected over the years. Nearing retirement, he's thinking about finding new homes for his collection.
